DLA to PIP scoring logic

I have just being looking at the PIP assessment wording for the mobility component and I am puzzled by the logic in the scoring.  To me, A, below, means the person cannot undertake any journey at all. B means they can undertake familiar journies if they have support of some kind. So why does B score more points than A?

Crucially A is below threshold and B is above Undecided

 

A.      Cannot undertake any journey because it would cause overwhelming psychological distress to the claimant.

 

B.      Cannot follow the route of a familiar journey without another person, an assistance dog or an orientation aid.

  • What do you get for dead, but still wishing to claim Past and Present.(PIP).

    Just another governmental "LONDON ACCOUNTANT system",,, I am lucky, I live in Scotland, we have a chance to get out of the UK in 2014, so that the scottish people belong to an actual real country, traditional culture and have a future. The people in England can have there PIP and eat it, with the 6 million legal visitors and 1 million illegal visitors, that is more than the population of Scotland. Scary... who is running the country, certainly not the natives.
